I'd be curious to hear how your old laptop could improve after getting cleaned of dust and with fresh thermal paste.
- secondcoming 5y agoWhen I replaced the thermal paste on my Dell 7750 with Conductonaut Extreme my builds were no longer thermally throttling the CPU.
- ksec 5y agoDo we have any thermal paste or other solution that works for 5+ years without degradation? ( I think I looked into this before but I forgot the answer )
- teaearlgraycold 5y agoMy guess is thermal epoxy will work. But you'll never be able to separate the heat sink from what you attach it to.
- grishka 5y agoI did clean it kinda regularly and did replace the thermal paste once. It stopped throttling when I put it on a stand to provide some airflow from below.
